Notes

Composite volume containing eight manuscripts from the 14th to 17th century: pp. 1-96, 97-394, 395-450, 451-486, 487-492, 493-542, 543-550, 551-558. They were compiled very late, and so the contents of the manuscripts not containing Middle English romance are only summarised here.

Note on pagination: The manuscript is paginated wrongly. The versos of pp. 473, 474, 477 and 478 have not been counted.
